Pungry, Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

Pungry is a furtive sunglasses and beanie-sporting Puni who is found in the Great Tree shop in the game Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door. His name is likely a portmanteau of "Puni" and "hungry". He shares traits with cartoon burglars or spies, having a surreptitious personality and attire.

He accompanies Pungent in his shop. During the events of Chapter 2, he says that the X-Nauts had been "desperately searching for something," but he did not know what. He also tells Mario that he camouflaged the shop entrance, which seems to have allowed him and Pungent to avoid detection by the X-Nauts when they took over the tree.

Pungry's design is the same as the Movers who reside in the Pit of 100 Trials.

Tattle information[edit]

  • That's Pungry of the Punies. He seems to be friends with Pungent, as far as I can tell. I guess they avoided any trouble with the X-Nauts by holing up in here.
